Hi mylotters, I think I met my darling by accident; online! Wow, A few eeks ago, while surfing on the internet, I only received a surprise greeting from a stranger -who was a young lady- online. As a result of that initial greeting, it created a powerful 'domino effect' relationship which continues to hold strong and true to both of us. Do you believe that 'cupid's arrow of love' can strike anyone on the internet, without going through a dating service (whether on the internet, or using the traditional approaches)? in your opinion, what are my chances of having a lasting relationship with this person?

awwww that's cute it can happen to anyone but sometimes it is just crazy how we would be so in love with a person right away without even seeing them or meeting them in person. well, we may see them in pictures but it is really different if we see them and hear from them... i just hope you can work it out and be happy with each other

Cherish14, I (we) have done better than that point suggested by you. Already -within a matter of days- we have one the following things: we met each other 'in the flesh'; gone on at least one date together; we interractted intimately; we disussed plans, and started inplementing some of them (the plans) for the indiviaual and collective future. Need I say more? Ooh yes, she is a darling at heart, with a dynamic personality, and she seems to be a progressve woman.

wow samson, I noticed you are 50 years old, and really surprised you asked this question... How much do you really know about this person that you met on line just a "few weeks ago". I think you alreay know the answer to this quiry..you are asking about a lasting relationship with this person?? What type of relationship do you have now with this person to even think that it could be a lasting relationship?? Sorry if I am sounding so negative but you asked and this is my truth opinion... Be careful its not alway "what you see is what you get"...

Ha ha. Bjc66bjc, i noticed that you did some research on me, and i'm smiling. Could you consider that I am 'teasing you up' to see how you would respond to my simplistic question? Wow, you bit the bait well. Let me arrange to estract the hook from out of your mouth, to avoid you hurting yourself any more that necessary.(Smile) Happy mylotting my friend. Ha,ha. your're good.

well samson, Not sure what the joke was but i didn't do any research just wanted to know how old was the person asking this question...It was right on your profile no research necessary... However, I normally respond to post or join discussion here from people who write real post...so please forgive me for thinking this question was from a serious person and not knowing that it was from a jokester... I will try to remember to not even read any post you make unless I am looking to get "teased up"...

Hi Bjc66bjc, remember that airing a question- regardles of its simplocity or complexity -can provide insightful information/answers/results for anyone; however, sophisticated or simple one is. Therefore, do not be offended by the real or percieved approach being forwarded here. Lighten up.., and enjoy the conversation, ok? All is well.

Yes, my boyfriend first met me online too. It was really romantic because he immediately liked me the first time he saw my picture. He flirted with me and because he knows I like him, we flirted with each other and that's how we ended up being together.

Butterscotch, thanks for sharing your real life experience with me. Indeed, you have presented encouraging arguments to me showing that it is possible to build a long lasting relationship with one's partner; a relationship which began by meeting each other, online. Continued best wishes in your relationship, ok?

Cupid his arrow will shoot everywhere so why not via internet? It's not about if your relationship has any chance to last but about you. What are you willing to invest, give up for this relationship? It doesn't matter how you meet, it does matter how you go on and what you are willing to invest. There is no quarantee any relationship will last forever since life is a long journey and people give up (on eachother) easily.

WakeupKitty, it is true that cupid can shoot its arrows anywhere and at any target whatsoever. Establishing the medium for meeting each other is useful, but the success of any relationship is usually dependent on the quality of investment one is 'collectively' prepared to put in it. Well said, and thanks.

Thanks for your good wishes, and advice. Indeed, I tend to agree with your suggestion that perhaps, it may become surprising pleasant and enjoyable for the recepient; when love visits one-using whatever means or medium- instead of one going in search for love. I appreciate your approach to dealing with the matter at hand. Best wishes to you also, and thanks.

Your chances of having a lasting relationship with a person you have met online is purely dependent on you and your partner. If you know how to handle relationship well, then there is a big possibility to have a lasting relationship with her. My sister met her husband through social networking site and up to now they have been together for seven years and they are happy with each other. That is because both of them made a conscious effort to make the relationship work.
